Best headphones?


I am contemplating buying a pair of Stax headphones. I have listened for short periods and am very impressed. Would appreciate any thoughts or advice from audiophiles with experience with Stax models. Thank you very much.

You're making my bank account boil and my aural sensibilities ache with longing, Baldridge! If you'd let me borrow this Stax headphone, I promise to clean my ears with bleach before putting them on! I want some soooo bad! Someday....
The Stax win hands down, but I just purchased the HD-600 because I wanted a pair that could plug into a regular headphone jack without special power supplied etc. If you are purchasing headphones to be your main "speakers" go with STAX, if you are purchasing headphones to augment a good set of speakers go with the Sennheisers
I can answer the question regarding the Sony MDR-V6 vs. Sennheiser 600. I own both. The 600s are in every regard better by a lot. I would say it's like the diffrence between hearing a nice hifi system and a standard system
I want to buy Sennheiser 600 phones. Can I use with my headphone jack on DENON AVP8000 preamp? How good is the headphone AMP on Denon?
